Let’s get down to business, shall we? I get asked about running a business a lot. So today, I’m gonna share with you some of the lessons I have learned in my own business journey.
Topics covered include:
- why you shouldn’t be ashamed of staying in your day job

- handling self-doubt in business
- navigating the capitalist paradigm when it doesn’t align with your values
- and so much more!

I loved this episode Carrie! I relate so much to everything you’ve said here about running a business! Big love! x
Thank you so much! <3 <3
Wow- really enjoyed this podcast! I’m especially grateful you answered the question in regards to business and capitalism from one of your listeners. This is one I’ve struggled with for many years – because my work and my mission comes from my heart. You answered this so eloquently.
One thing I’ve had a challenge with in trying to “build” my business is taking courses that had us naming a monetary figure to shoot for, and often times coached to make it a really big number. That never sat right with me. I’m not against money, it’s just that my why is more than that – always has been – always will be. While at the same time trying to balance that in my mind that money is an exchange of energy and when I earn money I can use it to support others missions I’m passionate about, etc.
I’m SO GLAD to have found you and your work. Every time I listen to your podcast, my heart feels home because so much of what you speak about resonates as truth.
Thank you for your beautiful mission in the world!!
Thanks! I’m glad you brought that part up specifically because it was a bit difficult for me to gather my thoughts. I’m glad what I shared resonated for you, and I appreciate your kind feedback!
I loved this episode of the podcast, Carrie. It felt so good to listen to as I thought about my own business journey and tarot journey in general. Everyone has their own path and there are so many ways of doing this business thing (including ways outside of the capitalist system). You really summed that up in this episode, making me feel on warm inside. Thanks!
You are so right. There are SO many different ways to approach this, and we each need to find what’s right for us. I appreciate your kind words!
